Am I going to be controlled by the players too?

Cheng Cheng opened his system inventory, looked at the "Snow Mountain Dragon Bone *1" inside, and clicked "Use".

"I'll grant you another stroke of good fortune."

"what?"

Before she finished speaking, Sylvia felt herself glowing, her soul seemed to float away, as if she had broken through some kind of limitation, and her entire vision became incredibly bright.

"The Judgment of the End of Light, Sylvia de Claire"

"Intimacy: 10 (40% talent attribute sharing)"

Level: 9→10

Combat Power: 800 → 1000

"Inherent Talents: Collector, Baki"

"Spark: Burning at the stake, puppetry"

Huh? When did the intimacy level go back to positive?

Women's mood swings are really strange.

Without much thought, Cheng Cheng used up all the experience books he received for completing the mission in one go, until he reached level 12 and combat power of 1300 before stopping.

In terms of combat power alone, he's about the same as Cicero, the boss of the first level.

"I... I've actually reached the Silver rank?"

Feeling the changes in her body, Sylvia was surprised.

Could it be that Mr. Mambo is truly a messenger of the gods, descending to my side to make me stronger and a hero?

Thinking of the stories in the mythology picture book, Sylvia felt a surge of excitement.

Favorability +3.

"Silver rank?" Cheng Cheng frowned. "I heard Cicero mention Silver rank last time. How exactly is the ranking system here determined?"

Sylvia: "???"

After a long period of confusion, Sylvia cautiously probed, "These are common sense, Mr. Godman...you didn't know?"

Have you heard of the "Common Sense Changes" series?

"what?"

"Similar to the hypnosis series... never mind."

Cheng Cheng didn't want to talk about these things with natives who had never played visual novels or read doujinshi.

Seriously, aren't you just playing the role of an "NPC who explains the world-building"? Can't you just honestly explain the world-building? And you actually asked me why I didn't know.

In this respect, "Yuanshen" does a much better job than you, often featuring long scenes of standing still and explaining the setting, which delights fans of standing still.

"Actually, it's like this." After thinking for a moment, Cheng Cheng said, "I am not from this world."

"You come from beyond this world?" Sylvia's curiosity was indeed piqued.

"Ah."

Cheng Cheng looked up at the sky, his tone gradually becoming weathered and profound: "I come from... a world called Teyvat. It is a continent shrouded in seven elements, where humans live under the rule of gods. There, those who possess the potential to become gods are called 'Primordial Spirits'. And I am the closest being to a god, which is why I am revered by the world as a 'God-Man'."

"I see." Sylvia nodded. "So, you were a legendary-level powerhouse close to godhood? And then, how did you end up inside my body?"

"Later?" Cheng Cheng sneered. "I encountered my nemesis. A god who called himself 'Mingchao'."

"Mingchao?"

"Well, just knowing that it is a curse is enough, so you have to be careful to keep it dry after hearing it... but that's not the point." Cheng Cheng paused. "In short, I fought a great battle on behalf of the 'Primordial Spirit' and the 'Bright Tide'. This battle was like the great battle at the beginning of creation was restarted. The sky collapsed and the earth cracked. Half of Teyvat was destroyed as a result, and it was called the 'War of Burial Fire' by later generations."

"So what was the result? Who won?"

“Slightly better,” Cheng Cheng sighed. “After that, I beat ‘Mingchao’ half to death; I also lost my power and fell into a deep sleep.”

"Ah!" Sylvia exclaimed, "Then you..."

"I refuse to accept this." Cheng Cheng declared resolutely, "Driven by my fervent desire, the 'Lord of the Six Paths of Reincarnation' found me, led me into the 'World of Reincarnation,' made me a member of the 'Holy Hall,' and sent me to traverse countless worlds to find those buried geniuses, nurture them, hone them, and help them break free from their fates to become world-shaking powerhouses, so that I can return to Teyvat and reclaim everything I have lost..."

He took a breath, and spoke each word with firm conviction:

"And you are that genius!"

silence.

Cheng Cheng could almost imagine how confused Sylvia must have been by his own ideas—how could these natives who had never played a second game or read any online novels imagine the vastness of the Teyvat world and the wonder of its cycle of reincarnation?

Alas, my skills are still too shallow.

"Wow...that's amazing!"

After a long while, Sylvia finally realized: "So Mr. Godman is really like the mysterious powerhouse in novels who helps the protagonist cultivate until he defeats the demon?"

Wow, not bad, the natives of this world actually have a bit of knowledge about online novels.

"You can understand it that way for now," he said, taking over the conversation. "Let's get back to the main topic: how are realms divided in this world?"

Chapter 14, I Learned Rabbit-Catching Skills at the Pet Market

Sylvia thought for a moment, then began to explain earnestly:

"Since humans mastered magic, there have been four levels: Silver, Gold, Legendary, and God, which correspond to Lower Demons, Upper Demons, Demon Lords, and Primordial Demons, respectively. Those below the Silver level are considered inferior, but they still possess the strength to take on a hundred opponents."

"Reaching the Silver rank means you can be called an extraordinary being. Only about one in ten thousand people can reach this level. Above that is the Gold rank, which allows you to single-handedly defeat lower-level demons. Even within the Silver rank, it's one in ten thousand. This is the limit that humans can reach by mastering magic alone."

“Above that,” Sylvia said with a hint of longing in her voice, “is the ‘Legendary Rank.’ Only heroes who hunt down demon lords and seize their fire can reach this level. Therefore, every Legendary Rank member is a living legend, truly deserving of the name.”

"As for the divine rank..." she sighed, "I don't know."

After listening, Cheng Cheng remained silent for three seconds.

"That's it?" He couldn't help but frown. "Tier 4, that's it?"

"Ah."

"Couldn't you be a little more specific? For example, Foundation Establishment, Nascent Soul Transformation, Returning to Emptiness and Merging with the Dao, Tribulation Transcending Immortal, Immortal King Realm, Immortal Venerable Realm, Immortal Emperor Realm, Immortal Saint Realm, Immortal Emperor Realm, Immortal God Realm, Time Immortal King, Time Immortal Venerable, Time Immortal Emperor, Immortal Ancestor Realm, Time Immortal Ancestor Realm, Eternal Immortal Ancestor Realm, Saint Ancestor Realm, Destiny Immortal Emperor Realm, Entering Ancestor Realm, Destiny Ancestor Realm, Emperor Ancestor Realm, Primordial Ancestor Realm, God King Realm, God Monarch Realm, God Ancestor Realm, God Cliff Realm, God Shore Realm, God Source Realm, God Silence Realm, God Extinction Realm, God Dao Realm, God Eternity Realm, Dao Venerable Realm, Dao Immortal Realm, Dao Emperor Realm, Dao God Realm, Dao Origin Realm, Entering Dao Realm, Initial Dao Realm, Opening Dao Realm, Knocking on Dao Realm, Mastering Dao Realm, Dao Void Realm, Breaking Dao Realm, Destiny Tribulation Realm, Destiny Ruins" "Realms, Realms of Destiny's Delusion, Realms of Destiny's Emptiness, Realms of Destiny's Illumination, Realms of Destiny's Eternity, Realms of Destiny's Profound Mystery, Boundless Dao, Realms of Seeing Dust, Realms of Burning Profound Mystery, Phoenix Fire, Burning Feathers, Realms of Destiny's Radiance, Boundless Heaven Realms, Realms of Destiny's Divine Spirit, Realms of Longevity, Realms of Nirvana, Realms of Body Nirvana, Realms of Heart Nirvana, Realms of Soul Nirvana, Realms of Infant Nirvana, Realms of the Star Pole, Wu Tian, ​​Realms of Destiny's Day, Realms of Destiny's Shore, Realms of Destiny's Mist, Realms of Destiny's Remoteness, Realms of Destiny's Transformation, Realms of Destiny's Extreme, Realms of Heavenly Mandate, Realms of Reversing Tribulation, Realms of Peeping at Destiny, Realms of Entering Destiny, Realms of Controlling Destiny, Realms of Breaking Destiny, Realms of Boundless Destiny, Realms of Ancient Dao, Realms of Eternal Dao, Realms of Creation, Realms of Creation, Realms of Creation, Realms of Immortality, Realms of Sealing Heaven, Eternal Destiny, Realms of Breaking Delusions, Realms of True Dao, Realms of Primordial Destiny, Realms of Asking Heaven, Realms of Extreme Mortality, Realms of Extreme Profound Mystery, Realms of Extreme Transcendence, Realms of Extreme Mastery, Realms of Stepping on the Extreme... and so on?"

No, not at all.

"What a joke." Cheng Cheng shook his head. "With such a vague ranking system, what do we do when we encounter a genius who can challenge us from a higher level?"

If someone can defeat 99% of Silver-ranked players, or even defeat Gold-ranked players, what rank would they be?

Without detailed settings like the late-stage Silver level peak Nine Revolutions Great Perfection half-step Gold level, how would anyone know how strong you are?

So, in the end, it's not even as good as online novels, let alone compared to the great second-generation games—which have a clear division from level 1 to level 90.

Wait, this seems to be the second world of the game?

That's fine.

After breaking through level 10, Sylvia claimed to have reached the Silver rank. Is the Silver rank equivalent to the Foundation Establishment stage in online novels? Also, can Silver and Gold ranks be considered game levels? What are the standards?

I don't really understand.

Cheng Cheng rubbed his temples, deciding to think about it later if he couldn't figure it out, and then changed the subject to something more practical: "How do ordinary people level up? Through meditation, potions, or killing monsters for experience? How do you determine each other's levels?"

What if I accidentally mistake a senior realm cultivator for an ant realm cultivator and step on them?

"If you're talking about cultivation, it's about physical training, martial arts, magic, and the like?" Sylvia thought for a moment. "Basically, only those at the Silver rank and above can use extraordinary abilities, while those at the Gold rank can not only fly but also have an automatic protective ability called 'Sanctuary.' Therefore, even if a Silver rank attacker launches a sneak attack, it's very difficult to harm a Gold rank."

"What about the strength?"

Cheng Cheng pressed on, "Then how powerful are your gods? Can they traverse the river of time, strike down enemies of the past, present, and future, suppress darkness and misfortune, leaving only a solitary figure, standing alone through the ages?"

"What is all this... I really don't know anything about the God Rank..."

"It's just a matter of creating a crater; at least there are those who can destroy a city in one blow."

“A single blow might not work, but at the Gold rank, they can basically slaughter an entire city in a single day. There are many records in history books of Gold-rank powerhouses going berserk and massacring cities,” Sylvia said after thinking for a moment. “Legendary rank powerhouses behave differently depending on their respective power inclinations…”

“However, if it’s just a description… Mr. God, look at the sky.”

"The sky?"

Cheng Cheng looked up; blue sky and white clouds, nothing at all.

“Look at the sun,” Sylvia said softly. “Don’t you think its light… is very gentle? Like looking through a piece of amber.”

Speak like a human.

"Legend has it that the true star in the heavens was shattered by a primordial being in a great war a thousand years ago," Sylvia said, somewhat aggrieved. "Then, the messenger of the Amber God, the legendary one who wielded the 'Sun,' hung himself in the sky, and he remains there to this day... Though not as powerful as the true sun, he's still arguably the strongest among the legends."

Cheng Cheng was stunned.

He gazed at the "sun" that hung high in the sky, burning for a thousand years, and sighed softly:

"Lady Mavica, thank you for your hard work."

"Who is Mavica?" Sylvia was slightly taken aback.

“Vulcan, shouldn’t that legend be called by this name?” Cheng Cheng asked in confusion. “In our Teyvat, Mavika is the sun of Nata.”

Sigh, I'm still a native who doesn't play "Gen Shen"...

As the only person in the Kingdom of Konoma who has ever played "Primal God", my eyes always reveal a solemnity that the natives cannot understand. Every time I see the sun, my eyes are filled with respect: "Lady Mavica, let us fight together—for Nata!"

This feeling is something that people who don't play "Yuan Shen" won't understand.

But then again, are all the legendary combatants in this world equivalent to little suns?

So powerful, it's amazing.

If Sylvia could be raised to be a legend, possessing equal power... then what would happen if this power were synchronized with reality?

He immediately became the governor of Earth, and his first order was to ban all forms of entertainment except for mobile games, especially Steam, so that even single-player gamers would lose the right to play games and could only play mobile games!

In particular, "The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild" must be completely banned online, and all the millions of Zelda players must be wiped out. In a few years, when people talk about open-world adventure games, they will only be able to think of "Gen Shen," the pioneering work.

Yes! That's what we'll do!

Power! He needs to gain power faster!

"Walk."

Cheng Cheng strode towards the shop with the largest billboard at the market entrance.

The shop was called "Rare Treasures Garden," its facade adorned with brass reliefs. Two guards stood ramrod straight, bowing immediately upon seeing Sylvia approach. Cheng Cheng didn't even glance at them, pushing open the door and entering.
